About

I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD MALE, BORN AGAIN, CHRISTIAN WITH A LOVE FOR JESUS. I DO NOT GET OUT MUCH ANYMORE BUT FIND THAT TELLING PEOPLE ABOUT THE LOVE JESUS HAS FOR THEM IS NOT ONLY WHAT WE ARE SUPPOSED TO DO BUT SOMETHING THAT THE WORLD NEEDS.

"FAITH, DO YOU USE YOURS?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

FAITH, DO YOU USE YOURS?

BY DAVID MCMILLEN




WHAT IS FAITH? WE KNOW WE ARE SAVED THROUGH IT AND IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD (EPHESIANS 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God). WE KNOW IT IS THE SUBSTANCE OF THINGS HOPED FOR AND THE EVIDENCE OF THINGS WE CAN'T SEE (HEBREWS 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.). WE KNOW THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY IT (GALATIANS 3:11 But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith.). WE KNOW THAT WITH IT THAT NOTHING SHALL BE IMPOSSIBLE FOR US (MATTHEW 17:20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto...

"WILL YOU FORGIVE?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2020-08-05

WILL YOU FORGIVE?




I WROTE ABOUT FORGIVENESS IN THE PAST BUT THIS IS TO A SPECIAL FRIEND THAT I BELIEVE  CAN BENEFIT FROM THIS MESSAGE AS SOME OTHER MIGHT.   WHEN YOU DON'T FORGIVE, YOU HAVE TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE ONLY HURTING YOURSELF.  JESUS HAS A LOT TO SAY ABOUT FORGIVENESS.  I GUESS THE BEST ONE IS MATTHEW 6:14-15 WHERE HE SAYS " For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:  But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."  YOU MIGHT SAY THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY BEEN FORGIVEN.  THIS IS TRUE BUT JESUS TEACHES US THAT WHEN WE SIN AND ASK FOR FORGIVENESS, GOD WILL APPLY THE FORGIVENESS THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN PROVIDED FOR US.  WALKING IN FORGIVENESS WILL STOP THE DEVIL FROM HAVING ACCESS TO US.

"THE FAITH TO FORGIVE" BY ANDREW WOMMACK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2020-08-05


The Faith To Forgive




Luke 17:5 'And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith.'




It is very interesting to note that the apostles asked Jesus to increase their faith after He spoke of forgiveness. They observed all of the wonderful miracles Jesus performed and yet that never inspired them to ask for greater faith. Truly, walking in love and forgiveness with each other takes as much faith as any miracle we will ever believe for.

The basis of forgiveness is the love and mercy of God. It is only because God first loved and forgave us that we can love and forgive others. If we aren't walking in the forgiveness of God, we won't minister it to others. He forgave us before we repented or asked for forgiveness.

The scriptures admonish us to...

"ARE YOU BORN AGAIN?" BY DAVID MCMILLEN

ARE YOU BORN AGAIN?










"VENGEANCE IS GOD'S" BY ANDREW WOMMACK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2020-08-04


Vengeance Is God's




Luke 17:2 'It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones.'




God takes the persecution of His children personally. In Acts 9:4 when Jesus appeared to Saul on the road to Damascus and spoke to him about his persecution of the saints, Jesus said, 'Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?' Saul was not directly persecuting Jesus but he was persecuting His saints. Yet Jesus said, 'Why are you persecuting me?' Judgment against those who persecute God's children will not always come in time to prevent their harm but as this warning makes very clear, God will avenge His own (Rom. 12:19).

Letting God be the one who defends us is a matter of faith....

ABSTAIN FROM ALL APPEARANCES OF EVIL



                                                  

HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU DONE SOMETHING WRONG (SINNED) AND HOPED NO ONE SAW YOU?  I HAVE MANY TIMES, IN MY PAST, AND HAD TO ASKED GOD TO FORGIVE ME.  THAT STILL DID NOT MAKE IT OK.  WHAT IF A YOUNG CHRISTIAN, WHO POSSIBLY LOOKED UP TO ME, SAW ME AND IT CAUSED HIM OR HER TO QUESTION THEIR BORN AGAIN EXPERIENCE?  THE REASON I MENTION THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE SCRIPTURE MATTHEW 18:1-6 WHERE IT SAYS "At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? And Jesus called a little...

"COMFORT IN ETERNITY" BY ANDREW WOMMACK


By DAVID A. MCMILLEN, 2020-08-03


Comfort In Eternity




Luke 16:22 'And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;'



LUKE 16:19-31



This story clearly teaches that there is life after death. It shows that there is no 'soul sleep' where our souls are awaiting the resurrection of our bodies, but we go into a conscious eternity immediately. It also shows that there are only two destinations possible after death. We either go to a place of torment for the wicked or a place of blessing for the righteous. There is no 'limbo' or 'purgatory' and there is no second chance, illustrating the finality of our eternal destiny once we die.

Abraham's bosom is a symbolic term designating a...
